Abstract

When a guide block 20 is located on each of both ends of a guide rail 18, rollers 50 are situated at a position where they are supported by hard supporting members 28a and 28b of a rail member 36, so that the guide block 20 is positioned at a predetermined position precisely. On the other hand, when the guide block 20 is located at a position in the vicinity of a center of the guide rail 8, the rail member 36 is slightly bent by elasticity of an elastic supporting member 32 in spite of lowering of a position precision in the vicinity of the guide rail due to a warp, a distortion, a bend and the like. Thus, an overload applied to the foregoing rail member 36 and the like is relieved.

Description

导向机构guide mechanism

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种引导一个部件相对于另一部件作相对移动的导向机构。The invention relates to a guide mechanism for guiding the relative movement of one part relative to another part.

背景技术Background technique

迄今为止,在如无杆(rodless)汽缸那样的一个部件在另一部件上作相对移动的装置中,广泛使用引导一个部件相对另一部件作移动的导向机构。所述现有技术中的导向机构是这样构成的:构成导向机构的导向块被固定到借助于无杆汽缸作移动的移动部件上,上述导向块沿着纵向方向的导轨作自由滑动。Hitherto, in devices in which one member moves relative to another, such as a rodless cylinder, a guide mechanism for guiding the movement of one member relative to the other has been widely used. The guide mechanism in the prior art is constructed in such a way that a guide block constituting the guide mechanism is fixed to a moving part that moves by means of a rodless cylinder, and the guide block freely slides along a guide rail in the longitudinal direction.

然而,对于上述现有导向机构,即使在导向块的构成应能够停止在导轨的预定部位上,以极高的定位精度把导轨预定部位安装到基座等上,以此来提高导向块的定位精度的情况下,导向块在除了上述预定部位的其它部位上滑动时,由于在上述导轨上产生的扭曲、变形、弯曲等原因,在导向块和导轨之间会发生拉伸作用和压缩作用。其结果恐怕会出现导轨摩损或者导向块上的滚轮承受过高负载,损坏导向功能的现象发生。若随着上述导轨长度的增长,导向块移动量增大,则受损概率将进一步提高。However, for the above-mentioned existing guide mechanism, even if the structure of the guide block should be able to stop on the predetermined position of the guide rail, the predetermined position of the guide rail is installed on the base or the like with extremely high positioning accuracy, so as to improve the positioning of the guide block. In the case of precision, when the guide block slides on other parts than the above-mentioned predetermined parts, tension and compression will occur between the guide block and the guide rail due to distortion, deformation, bending, etc. on the above-mentioned guide rail. As a result, the guide rail may be worn or the rollers on the guide block may be subjected to excessive loads, which may damage the guiding function. If the moving amount of the guide block increases with the increase of the length of the guide rail, the probability of damage will further increase.

发明内容Contents of the invention

本发明一般的目的是提供即使在导轨上发生扭曲、变形、弯曲等情况下,通过吸收施加到导向块及导轨等上的过大负荷,仍能够顺利地发挥出导向功能的导向机构。A general object of the present invention is to provide a guide mechanism that can smoothly perform a guiding function by absorbing excessive loads applied to guide pads, guide rails, etc. even when the guide rail is twisted, deformed, bent, etc.

本发明的主要目的是提供一种通过适当地吸收施加到导向块及导轨等上的过大负荷,可提高上述导向块及导轨等的耐久性的导向机构。A main object of the present invention is to provide a guide mechanism capable of improving the durability of the guide pad, guide rail, etc. by appropriately absorbing excessive loads applied to the guide pad, guide rail, and the like.

根据本发明,当在除了导轨的预定部件之外的其它部件的定位精度下降情况下,导块在上述其它部件上滑动时,虽然导轨部件受到作用在导轨和导向块之间的拉伸作用和压缩作用等的挤压,但因为上述导轨部件受到弹性支承部件的弹性作用而作移动,所以导轨部件阻止了较大的力作用于导向块和导轨上,从而可充分地发挥了导向功能。According to the present invention, when the guide block slides on the above-mentioned other parts under the condition that the positioning accuracy of the other parts other than the predetermined part of the guide rail is lowered, although the rail part is subjected to tension and tension acting between the guide rail and the guide block. Extrusion such as compression, but because the above-mentioned guide rail parts are moved by the elastic action of the elastic support part, so the guide rail parts prevent a large force from acting on the guide block and the guide rail, thereby fully exerting the guiding function.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

关于本发明的导向机构,下面,举例优选实施例,参照附图作详细说明。With regard to the guiding mechanism of the present invention, preferred embodiments are exemplified below and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

图1及图2示出应用本发明第1实施例的导向机构10的移动装置12。该移动装置12具备2个导向机构10/10,该2个导向机构10/10基本上平行固定在基座14的安装面16上,各导向机构10具有细长的导轨18和与导轨18嵌合并可在其上作滑动的导向块20。1 and 2 show a moving device 12 to which a guide mechanism 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention is applied. This moving device 12 is equipped with 2 guiding mechanisms 10/10, and these 2 guiding mechanisms 10/10 are basically fixed on the installation surface 16 of base 14 in parallel, and each guiding mechanism 10 has elongated guide rail 18 and is embedded with guide rail 18. A guide block 20 that can slide thereon is combined.

在相隔预定间距的一组导向块20/20的上面分别固定着板状工作台22。挡块23固定在基座14上,导向块20接触到挡块23上时,工作台22停止移动,而被定位。2个导向机构10/10各自具有相同构成,对相同的构成要素组标注相同的附图标号并在下面作说明。Plate-like workbenches 22 are respectively fixed on a group of guide blocks 20/20 at predetermined intervals. The stopper 23 is fixed on the base 14, and when the guide block 20 touches the stopper 23, the worktable 22 stops moving and is positioned. Each of the two guide mechanisms 10/10 has the same configuration, and the same reference numerals are attached to the same component group and will be described below.

如图3及图4所示,在导轨18的上面,沿其长度方向形成了截面形状为梯形状的槽24a/24b,2个槽分层重叠。在槽24b的底部上形成截面略呈T字状的槽26。As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 , on the upper surface of the guide rail 18 , grooves 24 a and 24 b having a trapezoidal cross-sectional shape are formed along the longitudinal direction thereof, and the two grooves overlap in layers. A groove 26 having a substantially T-shaped cross section is formed at the bottom of the groove 24b.

如图5所示,一对由钢等的金属材料制造的截面形状呈梯形的硬质支承部件28a/28b插入在沿导轨18的轴线方向的两端侧的各槽24b内。在上述硬质支承部件28a/28b上形成了第1锥形部30,该锥形部30朝着导轨18的中央侧慢慢地变薄。在插入槽24b内的一个硬质支承部件28a和另一硬质支承部件28b之间插入由含有合成橡胶等高分子材料或海绵等具有弹性的部件形成的弹性支承部件32。在弹性支承部件32的两端上分别形成第2锥形部34,该锥形部34的厚度逐渐减少,与上述硬质支承部件28a/28b的第1锥形部30啮合。把由钢等的金属材料制作的截面呈梯状的导轨部件36插入槽24a内,因此,导轨部件36在其轴线方向的两端受到硬质支承部件28a/28b支承,在其中间位置受弹性支承部件32的支承。因而,虽然导轨部件36的两端没有挠性,但导轨部件36的中间因弹性支承部件32的弹性作用而可作适当挠曲。As shown in FIG. 5 , a pair of hard supporting members 28 a and 28 b made of metal such as steel and having a trapezoidal cross-sectional shape are inserted into grooves 24 b at both ends along the axial direction of the guide rail 18 . The first tapered portion 30 gradually becomes thinner toward the center side of the guide rail 18 is formed on the rigid supporting member 28a/28b. An elastic support member 32 formed of a polymer material such as synthetic rubber or an elastic member such as sponge is inserted between the one rigid support member 28a and the other rigid support member 28b in the insertion groove 24b. At both ends of the elastic supporting member 32, second tapered portions 34 are formed, the thickness of which gradually decreases, and are engaged with the first tapered portions 30 of the above-mentioned hard supporting members 28a/28b. The guide rail member 36 that is made of metal materials such as steel as a ladder-shaped cross-section is inserted in the groove 24a. Therefore, the guide rail member 36 is supported by the hard support members 28a/28b at both ends of its axial direction, and is elastically supported at its middle position. The support of the support member 32 . Therefore, although the two ends of the guide rail member 36 are not flexible, the middle of the guide rail member 36 can be properly flexed due to the elastic action of the elastic support member 32 .

如图4及图5所示,锁定部件40分别与沿导轨18的轴线方向上的两端槽24a、24b啮合。锁定部件40的中央上形成了凹部42,孔44与形成凹部42的底部联通。螺栓46插入孔44内,螺栓46与插入槽26内的呈四角形螺母48拧合,因此,锁定部件40被锁定在槽24a/24b内。在此情况下,锁定部件40起到对硬质支承部件28a/28b及导轨部件36的定位及防脱出的作用。As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 , the locking members 40 are respectively engaged with the grooves 24 a and 24 b at both ends along the axial direction of the guide rail 18 . A recess 42 is formed at the center of the locking member 40, and a hole 44 communicates with the bottom where the recess 42 is formed. The bolt 46 is inserted into the hole 44, and the bolt 46 is screwed into the square nut 48 inserted into the groove 26, so that the locking member 40 is locked in the groove 24a/24b. In this case, the locking member 40 functions to position and prevent the hard support members 28a/28b and the rail member 36 from falling out.

如图5所示,在导向块20上设置了可在导轨部件36上滚动的多个滚轮50,因此,导向块40可以尽可能小的阻力在导轨18上作移动。As shown in FIG. 5 , a plurality of rollers 50 that can roll on the rail member 36 are provided on the guide block 20 , so that the guide block 40 can move on the guide rail 18 with as little resistance as possible.

第一实施例的导向机构基本上是如上构成,下面,说明其动作及作用效果。The guide mechanism of the first embodiment is basically constituted as above, and its operation and effect will be described below.

把工件W放置于工作台22上。在导向块20如图5中实线所示地与挡块23接触,工作台22位于导向机构10一端时,导向块20上的滚轮50位于受到导轨部件36和硬质支承部件28a支承的位置上。因此,导向块20不会在垂直于其移动方向的方向上下方向上作移动,工作台22被正确地定位在预定位置上。The workpiece W is placed on the table 22 . As shown in solid line in Fig. 5, guide block 20 is in contact with block 23, and when workbench 22 is positioned at one end of guide mechanism 10, the roller 50 on the guide block 20 is positioned at the position supported by guide rail member 36 and hard support member 28a superior. Therefore, the guide block 20 does not move up and down in a direction perpendicular to its moving direction, and the table 22 is correctly positioned at a predetermined position.

当用手动,或图中未出的驱动源的驱动作用下,工作台22从一端向另一端移动时,导向块20的滚轮50在导轨部件36上面移动,导向块20沿导轨18移动。因此,导向块20上的滚轮50如图5中虚线所示位于受导轨部件36及弹性支承部件32支承的位置上。When manually or under the drive of the driving source not shown in the figure, when the workbench 22 moved from one end to the other, the roller 50 of the guide block 20 moved on the guide rail part 36, and the guide block 20 moved along the guide rail 18. Therefore, the roller 50 on the guide block 20 is located at a position supported by the guide rail member 36 and the elastic support member 32 as shown by the dotted line in FIG. 5 .

在此情况下,当导轨18上产生扭曲、变形、弯曲等现象时,导轨18中央部位的定位精度下降,在导向块20和导轨18之间产生拉伸作用和压缩作用。该拉伸作用和压缩作用将会使导轨部件36摩损或于滚轮50上施加过高的负载。若上述滚轮50所承受的负载加到导轨部件36上,则该导轨部件36因弹性支承部件32的弹性作用而发生一定的挠曲(参照图5中的虚线)。因而,即使在上述滚轮50及导轨部件36受到过载时,因为上述过载被弹性支承部件32的弹性充分地吸收,所以减轻了该滚轮50所受的负载,减少了导轨部件36的磨损。In this case, when the guide rail 18 is twisted, deformed, bent, etc., the positioning accuracy of the central portion of the guide rail 18 will decrease, and tension and compression will occur between the guide block 20 and the guide rail 18 . This tension and compression will cause the rail members 36 to wear out or place excessive loads on the rollers 50 . When the load borne by the above-mentioned rollers 50 is applied to the guide rail member 36, the guide rail member 36 is deflected to a certain extent due to the elastic action of the elastic support member 32 (refer to the dotted line in FIG. 5 ). Therefore, even when the rollers 50 and the rail member 36 are overloaded, since the overload is sufficiently absorbed by the elasticity of the elastic support member 32, the load on the rollers 50 is reduced and the wear of the rail member 36 is reduced.

即使随着导块18长度的延长,导向块20的移动量增大,因为弹性支承部件32的作用,施加到滚轮50及导轨部件36上的过载被充分吸收,所以能够充分地发挥导向功能。Even if the movement amount of the guide block 20 increases as the length of the guide block 18 increases, the overload applied to the roller 50 and the rail member 36 is fully absorbed by the elastic support member 32, so the guiding function can be fully exerted.

当工作台22进一步移动,并到达导向机构10的另一端部时,滚轮50再次移动到受导轨部件36及硬质支承部件28b支承的位置上。因此,导向块20不会在垂直于其移动方向的方向上作移动,工作台22被正确地定位在预定位置上。When the table 22 moves further and reaches the other end of the guide mechanism 10, the roller 50 moves again to the position supported by the rail member 36 and the hard support member 28b. Therefore, the guide block 20 does not move in a direction perpendicular to its moving direction, and the table 22 is correctly positioned at a predetermined position.

当工作台22移动,滚轮50从受导轨部件36和硬质支承部件28a或28b支承的位置移动到受弹性支承部件32支承的位置时,因为硬质支承部件28a/28b和弹性支承部件32相互因第1锥形部30和第2锥形部34而啮合,所以上述导轨部件36稍有弯曲,且不会因台阶而发生振动。When the workbench 22 moves, the roller 50 moves from the position supported by the guide rail member 36 and the hard support member 28a or 28b to the position supported by the elastic support member 32, because the hard support member 28a/28b and the elastic support member 32 mutually Since the first tapered portion 30 is engaged with the second tapered portion 34, the rail member 36 is slightly bent and does not vibrate due to the step.

在第1实施例中,由于硬质支承部件28a/28b设置在导轨18的两端上,定位精度高于设置弹性支承部件32的中央部位,但并不限于上述构成。当然,例如可以将硬质支承部件28a(28b)配设在要求高定位精度的部位上,而在除了上述部位以外的其它部位上配设弹性支承部件32。In the first embodiment, since the hard support members 28a/28b are provided at both ends of the guide rail 18, the positioning accuracy is higher than that of the central part where the elastic support member 32 is provided, but it is not limited to the above configuration. Of course, for example, the hard supporting member 28a ( 28b ) may be arranged at a location requiring high positioning accuracy, and the elastic supporting member 32 may be arranged at other locations than the above-mentioned location.

在第1实施例中,虽然把滚轮50装在导向块20上,但也可以将在导轨部件36上可作滑动的部件20(图未示出)安装到导向块20上代替滚轮50。In the first embodiment, although the rollers 50 are mounted on the guide block 20, a member 20 (not shown) that can slide on the rail member 36 may be mounted on the guide block 20 instead of the rollers 50.

在第1实施例中,一组导向机构10/10配置得基本相互平行,但并不限于这样的构成,也可以使用单根导向机构10,或者并排2根以上的导向机构10。In the first embodiment, a set of guide mechanisms 10/10 is arranged substantially parallel to each other, but it is not limited to such a configuration, and a single guide mechanism 10, or two or more guide mechanisms 10 may be used in parallel.

下面,参照图6说明第2实施例的导向机构。与第1实施例相同的构成要素采用相同的附图标号,并于此处省略对它们的说明。Next, the guide mechanism of the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 6 . Components that are the same as those in the first embodiment are given the same reference numerals, and their descriptions are omitted here.

在图6中,附图标号100示出应用本发明第2实施例的导向机构108a/108b的汽缸组件100。汽缸组件100基本上具备板状安装部件106a/106b,导向机构108a/108b和无杆汽缸110。其中的安装部件106a/106b被固定到装着该汽缸组件100的基座102的安装面104上,导向机构108a/108b架设在各安装部件106a/106b之间,无杆汽缸110固定在上述安装部件106a/106b上与其垂直。In FIG. 6, reference numeral 100 shows a cylinder assembly 100 to which the guide mechanism 108a/108b of the second embodiment of the present invention is applied. The cylinder assembly 100 basically includes plate-shaped mounting members 106 a / 106 b , guide mechanisms 108 a / 108 b and a rodless cylinder 110 . Among them, the mounting parts 106a/106b are fixed on the mounting surface 104 of the base 102 on which the cylinder assembly 100 is installed, the guide mechanism 108a/108b is erected between the mounting parts 106a/106b, and the rodless cylinder 110 is fixed on the above-mentioned mounting parts 106a/106b is perpendicular to it.

在安装部件106a/106b上沿其长度方向设置2条相互平行的断面呈T形的槽112。如图7所示,螺母部件114可移动地插入槽112内部。Two mutually parallel slots 112 with a T-shaped section are provided on the mounting part 106a/106b along its length direction. As shown in FIG. 7 , the nut member 114 is movably inserted inside the groove 112 .

导向机构108a/108b具有架设在安装部件106a/106b之间且与之垂直的导轨116a/116b和与导轨116a/116b啮合且可在其上滑动的导向块118a/118b。板状工作台120架设在导向块118a和118b之间。在导轨116a/116b的端部上形成切口122。安装部件106a/106b啮合切口122,导轨116a/116b被安装在与安装部件106a/106b的延伸方向垂直的方向上。The guide mechanism 108a/108b has guide rails 116a/116b erected between the mounting parts 106a/106b and perpendicular thereto, and guide blocks 118a/118b engaged with the guide rails 116a/116b and slidable thereon. A plate-like workbench 120 is erected between the guide blocks 118a and 118b. Cutouts 122 are formed on the ends of the guide rails 116a/116b. The mounting members 106a/106b engage the cutouts 122, and the guide rails 116a/116b are mounted in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the mounting members 106a/106b extend.

如图7所示,在导轨116a/116b上,沿其长度方向的边缘上形成薄壁部124,多根螺栓126插入薄壁部124内,螺栓126与螺母部件114拧合。因此,导轨116a/116b被固定到安装部件106a/106b上。当拧松螺栓126时,导轨116a/116b就可沿安装部件106a/106b的槽移动。在导轨116a/116b上形成可安装磁传感器等的位置检测传感器的(图未示出)槽128a/128b和安装挡块130的槽132(参照图8及图9)。As shown in FIG. 7 , on the guide rail 116a/116b, a thin-walled portion 124 is formed along the edge along its length direction, and a plurality of bolts 126 are inserted into the thin-walled portion 124 , and the bolts 126 are screwed to the nut member 114 . Thus, the rails 116a/116b are secured to the mounting members 106a/106b. When the bolts 126 are loosened, the rails 116a/116b can move along the slots of the mounting members 106a/106b. Grooves 128a/128b into which position detection sensors such as magnetic sensors can be mounted (not shown) and grooves 132 into which stoppers 130 can be mounted are formed on the guide rails 116a/116b (see FIGS. 8 and 9 ).

如图9所示,导向块118a/118b上形成了第1平行面134和第1斜倾面138。平行面134与安装了该汽缸组件100的基座102的安装面104平行,第1斜倾面138相对于上述第1平行面134以约45度角朝右下方倾斜。在第1平行面134和第1倾斜面138之间形成了相对于第1平行面134朝左下倾斜约45度角,与第1倾斜面138垂直(约成90度角)第2倾斜面136。As shown in FIG. 9, a first parallel surface 134 and a first inclined surface 138 are formed on the guide blocks 118a/118b. The parallel surface 134 is parallel to the mounting surface 104 of the base 102 on which the cylinder assembly 100 is mounted, and the first inclined surface 138 is inclined downward and rightward at an angle of about 45 degrees with respect to the first parallel surface 134 . Between the first parallel surface 134 and the first inclined surface 138, a second inclined surface 136 is formed which is inclined to the left by about 45 degrees relative to the first parallel surface 134 and perpendicular to the first inclined surface 138 (at an angle of about 90 degrees). .

分别形成在导向块118a/118b上的上述第1平行面134,第1倾斜面138及第2倾斜面136分别对着导轨116a/116b上的第2平行面140,第3倾斜面144及第4倾斜面142。The first parallel surface 134, the first inclined surface 138 and the second inclined surface 136 respectively formed on the guide block 118a/118b face the second parallel surface 140, the third inclined surface 144 and the second inclined surface 136 on the guide rail 116a/116b respectively. 4 inclined surface 142.

The roller 156 is inserted into the recess 154 . The roller 156 is rotatably supported by the holding member 150 via a shaft 158 (see FIG. 9 ). In this case, instead of the rollers 156, a sliding member that slides on the rail member 36 may be attached to the concave portion 154 of the holding member 150.

另一方面,在上述导轨116a/116b的第2平行面140,第3倾斜面144,第4倾斜面142中,对着安装了滚轮156的面的表面上(图9中,参照第2平行面140,第3倾斜面144)形成与第1实施例的导向机构10相同的、沿其长度方向截面形状为梯形状的槽24a/24b,2个槽分层重叠。且在槽24b的底部上形成断面呈T字状的槽部26。把一对硬质支承部件28a/28b分别插入到沿上述各导轨116a/116b的轴线方向的两端的槽24b内,将弹性支承部件32插入到硬质支承部件28a/28b之间(参照图5)。导轨部件36插入到槽24a内,因此,导轨部件36在其两端受硬质支承部件28a/28b支承,其中央受弹性支承部件32支承。滚轮156可在导轨部件36上滚动。此时,也可以将导轨部件36设在上述第2平行面140、第3倾斜面144、第4倾斜面142的全部上。On the other hand, in the 2nd parallel surface 140 of above-mentioned guide rail 116a/116b, the 3rd inclined surface 144, the 4th inclined surface 142, on the surface (in Fig. Surface 140, the 3rd inclined surface 144) form the groove 24a/24b that is the same as the guide mechanism 10 of the first embodiment, the cross-sectional shape along its longitudinal direction is trapezoidal, and 2 grooves overlap in layers. Further, a groove portion 26 having a T-shaped cross section is formed at the bottom of the groove 24b.

The rail member 36 is inserted into the groove 24a, so that the rail member 36 is supported by the hard support members 28a/28b at both ends thereof, and supported by the elastic support member 32 at the center thereof. The rollers 156 can roll on the rail member 36 . In this case, the rail member 36 may be provided on all of the second parallel surface 140 , the third inclined surface 144 , and the fourth inclined surface 142 .

在导向块118a/118b上,沿其移动方向上形成槽164,把检测位置用的磁石166插入槽164内(参照图9)。A groove 164 is formed in the guide block 118a/118b along its moving direction, and a magnet 166 for position detection is inserted into the groove 164 (see FIG. 9).

如图8所示,在安装部件106a/106b之间,且在与导轨116a、116b平行地设置的无杆汽缸110的侧面,形成槽168a/168b。锁定部件170a/170b与槽168a/168b啮合,锁定部件170a/170b拧紧在安装部件106a/106b上,将无杆汽缸110固定到安装部件106a/106b上。如图6所示,将端块172a/172b分别固定到无杆汽缸110的端部上,在上述端块172a/172b上分别形成高压流体出入口174a/174b(参照图6,图8及图12)。高压流体出入口174a/174b通过电磁阀与图未示出的流体供给源连接。As shown in FIG. 8, grooves 168a/168b are formed between the mounting members 106a/106b and on the side surfaces of the rodless cylinder 110 provided parallel to the guide rails 116a, 116b. The locking members 170a/170b engage the slots 168a/168b and the locking members 170a/170b are screwed onto the mounting members 106a/106b to secure the rodless cylinder 110 to the mounting members 106a/106b. As shown in FIG. 6, the end blocks 172a/172b are respectively fixed to the ends of the rodless cylinder 110, and high-pressure fluid inlets and outlets 174a/174b are respectively formed on the above-mentioned end blocks 172a/172b (refer to FIG. 6, FIG. 8 and FIG. 12 ). The high-pressure fluid inlet and outlet 174a/174b are connected to a fluid supply source not shown in the figure through a solenoid valve.

如图12所示,活塞180沿汽缸室181可滑动地插入无杆汽缸110内部。在活塞180的两端部上分别形成受压面182a/182b,在受压面182a/182b上沿活塞180的轴线方向形成孔184a/184b。设置了筒状部件186a/186b,筒状部件186a/186b与端块172a/172b连接,具有与高压流体出入口174a/174b连通的通孔,可插入孔184a/184b内。在构成孔184a/184b的壁部上设置环状的缓冲密封垫188a/188b。带式分离器190a/190b被固定到活塞180的上部的活塞扼圈192上,带式分离器190a/190b起到使设置在无杆汽缸110的上部的第1密封部件193和第2密封部件194相互分离的作用。滚轮198通过支承部件196可转动地由轴支承在活塞扼圈192上方。As shown in FIG. 12 , a piston 180 is slidably inserted inside the rodless cylinder 110 along a cylinder chamber 181 . Pressure receiving surfaces 182 a and 182 b are respectively formed on both ends of the piston 180 , and holes 184 a and 184 b are formed on the pressure receiving surfaces 182 a and 182 b along the axial direction of the piston 180 . A cylindrical member 186a/186b is provided. The cylindrical member 186a/186b is connected to the end block 172a/172b, has a through hole communicating with the high-pressure fluid inlet and outlet 174a/174b, and can be inserted into the hole 184a/184b. Ring-shaped buffer packings 188a/188b are provided on the walls constituting the holes 184a/184b. The band separators 190a/190b are fixed to the piston choke 192 on the upper part of the piston 180, and the band separators 190a/190b function to make the first sealing member 193 and the second sealing member provided on the upper part of the rodless cylinder 110 194 separate roles from each other. The roller 198 is rotatably pivotally supported above the piston choke 192 via a support member 196 .

在无杆汽缸110上部设沿轴线方向作往复运动的移动部件200。在上述移动部件200的底面上设截面呈曲线状的凹部202。支承部件196嵌合构成凹部202的图未示出的壁部,因此,移动部件200与活塞180一起移动。支承部件196起到了作为容许移动部件200移动的浮子机构的功能。在移动部件200下部设刮板204a/204b。如图8所示,移动部件200通过接头206与一个导向块118b连接。在无杆汽缸110上并非必须设置容许移动部件200移动的浮子机构。On the upper part of the rodless cylinder 110, a moving part 200 reciprocating along the axis direction is provided. A concave portion 202 having a curved cross section is provided on the bottom surface of the moving member 200 . Since the support member 196 is fitted to a wall portion (not shown) constituting the concave portion 202 , the moving member 200 moves together with the piston 180 . The supporting member 196 functions as a float mechanism that allows the moving member 200 to move. A scraper 204a/204b is provided at the lower part of the moving part 200 . As shown in FIG. 8 , the moving part 200 is connected to a guide block 118 b through a joint 206 . A float mechanism that allows the movement of the moving member 200 is not necessarily provided on the rodless cylinder 110 .

使用第2实施例的导向机构108a/108b的汽缸组件100基本上为如上的构成,下面说明其动作及作用效果。The cylinder assembly 100 using the guide mechanism 108a/108b of the second embodiment basically has the above structure, and its operation and effect will be described below.

首先,如图8及图9所示,在把汽缸组件100水平地安装在基座102上,工件W的负载以箭头A方向作用到汽缸组件100的工作台120上时,保持部件150嵌入导向块118a/118b的第1平行面134、第1倾斜面138的凹部146,通过螺栓152把保持部件150安装到第1平行面134、第1倾斜面138上。因此,滚轮156安装到第1平行面134、第1倾斜面138上。硬质支承部件28a/28b及弹性支承部件32装在导轨116a/116b的第2平行面140、第3倾斜面144的槽24b上,导轨部件36装在槽24a上。First, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, when the cylinder assembly 100 is installed horizontally on the base 102, and the load of the workpiece W acts on the workbench 120 of the cylinder assembly 100 in the direction of arrow A, the holding member 150 is inserted into the guide. The recessed portion 146 of the first parallel surface 134 and the first inclined surface 138 of the block 118a/118b attaches the holding member 150 to the first parallel surface 134 and the first inclined surface 138 by bolts 152 . Therefore, the roller 156 is attached to the first parallel surface 134 and the first inclined surface 138 . The hard support member 28a/28b and the elastic support member 32 are installed on the groove 24b of the second parallel surface 140 and the third inclined surface 144 of the guide rail 116a/116b, and the guide rail member 36 is installed on the groove 24a.

当从图中未示出的压力流体供给源向这样组装而成的汽缸组件100的一个压力流体出入口174a供给压缩空气等的压力流体时,压力流体经筒状部件186a的通路推压受压面182a。因此,活塞180在图12中向箭头C方向移动。此时,因为活塞180嵌合在构成移动部件200的凹部202的壁部,所以移动部件200朝箭头C方向移动。When pressurized fluid such as compressed air is supplied from a pressurized fluid supply source (not shown) to one pressurized fluid port 174a of the assembled cylinder assembly 100 in this way, the pressurized fluid presses the pressure receiving surface through the passage of the cylindrical member 186a. 182a. Therefore, the piston 180 moves in the arrow C direction in FIG. 12 . At this time, since the piston 180 is fitted into the wall portion constituting the concave portion 202 of the moving member 200 , the moving member 200 moves in the arrow C direction.

该移动作用经接头206传送给一个导向块118b,再从导向块118b传送给工作台120及另外的导向块118a。因此,导向块118a/118b及工作台120沿无杆汽缸110的长度方向一起移动,运送工件W。This movement is transmitted to one guide block 118b via the joint 206, and from the guide block 118b to the table 120 and the other guide block 118a. Therefore, the guide blocks 118a/118b and the table 120 move together in the longitudinal direction of the rodless cylinder 110, and the workpiece W is conveyed.

同样地,当向设置在与上述压力流体出入口174a相反侧上的另一压力流体出入口174b(参照图8)供给压力流体时,在图12中,活塞180朝箭头C`方向移动,使工件W朝C`方向运送。Similarly, when the pressure fluid is supplied to the other pressure fluid inlet and outlet 174b (refer to FIG. 8 ) provided on the opposite side to the pressure fluid inlet and outlet 174a, the piston 180 moves in the arrow C' direction in FIG. Shipping in the direction of C`.

此时,工件W的载荷朝箭头A方向作用到工作台120上。该载荷由安装在导向块118a/118b的第1平行面134上的滚轮156和设置在导轨116a/116b的第2平行面134上的导轨部件36支承。因工件W的偏载荷,有时在导向块118a/118b上作用与箭头A方向基本垂直的方向或与该方向倾斜的力。该力由安装在导向块118a/118b的第1倾斜面138上的滚轮156和设置在导向块116a/116b的第3倾斜面144上的导轨部件36支承。At this time, the load of the workpiece W acts on the table 120 in the arrow A direction. This load is supported by the roller 156 attached to the first parallel surface 134 of the guide block 118a/118b and the guide rail member 36 provided on the second parallel surface 134 of the guide rail 116a/116b. Due to the unbalanced load of the workpiece W, a force in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of the arrow A or inclined to the direction may act on the guide pads 118a/118b. This force is supported by the roller 156 attached to the first inclined surface 138 of the guide block 118a/118b and the rail member 36 provided on the third inclined surface 144 of the guide block 116a/116b.

当因导轨116a/116b上的扭曲、变形、弯曲等原因,导轨116a/116b的中央部位的定位精度下降,在导向块118a/118b和导轨116a/116b之间作用拉伸作用、压缩作用时,导轨部件36的磨损增加,或者对滚轮156上作用过载。若作用于滚轮156上的载荷施加到导轨部件36上时,导轨部件36因弹性支承部件32的弹性而略有挠曲。因而,作用于滚轮156及导轨部件36等上的过载由上述弹性支承部件32的弹性作用充分地吸收,能够减轻导轨部件36的磨损以及作用到滚轮156上的载荷。When the positioning accuracy of the central part of the guide rail 116a/116b decreases due to distortion, deformation, bending, etc. The wear of the guide rail part 36 increases, or an overload acts on the rollers 156 . If a load acting on the rollers 156 is applied to the guide rail member 36, the guide rail member 36 is slightly deflected due to the elasticity of the elastic support member 32. Therefore, the overload acting on the roller 156 and the rail member 36 is sufficiently absorbed by the elastic action of the elastic support member 32, and the wear of the rail member 36 and the load on the roller 156 can be reduced.

这里,说明根据工件W的形状和大小等调整工作台120的宽度。Here, adjustment of the width of the table 120 according to the shape and size of the workpiece W will be described.

先从导向块118a/118b上取下工作台120,并把一个导轨116a固定到安装部件106a/106b上的螺栓126拧松,如图8中的虚线所示,沿安装部件106a/106b移动导轨16a。此时,螺母114与导轨116a一起在槽112内部移动。把导轨116a移动到预定位置上后,再拧紧螺栓126,将导轨116a固定到安装部件106a/106b上。此时将与导向块118a和118b间隔相对应宽度的工作台120安装到导向块118a/118b上。First remove the workbench 120 from the guide block 118a/118b, and unscrew a guide rail 116a fixed to the bolt 126 on the mounting part 106a/106b, as shown in dotted line in Figure 8, move the guide rail along the mounting part 106a/106b 16a. At this time, the nut 114 moves inside the groove 112 together with the guide rail 116a. After the guide rail 116a is moved to a predetermined position, the bolt 126 is tightened to fix the guide rail 116a to the mounting member 106a/106b. At this time, the workbench 120 having a width corresponding to the distance between the guide blocks 118a and 118b is installed on the guide blocks 118a/118b.

若使用安装了这样宽度大小的工作台120的汽缸组件100,则工件W在与导向块118a/118b前进方向垂直的方向上的运动受到工件台120很好的支承,能够稳定地运送工件W。而且,因为没有必要使导轨116a/116b和导向块118a/118b大型化,从而,可降低成本,因为不必变更从安装面104到工作台120的高度方向的尺寸,所以可增大设计自由度。If the cylinder assembly 100 equipped with a workbench 120 of such a width is used, the movement of the workpiece W in the direction perpendicular to the advancing direction of the guide blocks 118a/118b is well supported by the workpiece table 120, and the workpiece W can be transported stably. Furthermore, since there is no need to enlarge the size of the guide rails 116a/116b and the guide blocks 118a/118b, the cost can be reduced, and the degree of freedom in design can be increased because there is no need to change the dimension in the height direction from the mounting surface 104 to the table 120.

如图13所示,变更汽缸组件100的安装姿势,将汽缸组件100安装到略垂直的壁面105上,载荷朝箭头B方向作用于导向块118a/118b的侧面上时,保持部件150嵌入到导向块118a/118b的第1倾斜面138、第2倾斜面136的凹部146内,把滚轮156安装到第1倾斜面138、第2倾斜面136上。另外,把硬质支承部件28a/28b及弹性支承部件32安装到导轨116a/116b的第3倾斜面144、第4倾斜面142的槽24b内,将导轨部件36装在槽24a上。As shown in FIG. 13 , the installation posture of the cylinder assembly 100 is changed, and the cylinder assembly 100 is installed on a slightly vertical wall surface 105. When the load acts on the side surfaces of the guide blocks 118a/118b in the direction of the arrow B, the holding member 150 is embedded into the guide block. In the recesses 146 of the first inclined surface 138 and the second inclined surface 136 of the block 118a/118b, the roller 156 is attached to the first inclined surface 138 and the second inclined surface 136 . In addition, the hard support member 28a/28b and the elastic support member 32 are installed in the groove 24b of the third inclined surface 144 and the fourth inclined surface 142 of the guide rail 116a/116b, and the guide rail member 36 is mounted on the groove 24a.

当工件W的载荷朝箭头B方向作用到导块118a/118b上时,该载荷由安装在导向块118a/118b的第1倾斜面138,第2倾斜面136上的滚轮156和设置在导轨116a/116b的第3倾斜面144、第4倾斜面142上的导轨部件36支承。When the load of the workpiece W acts on the guide block 118a/118b in the direction of arrow B, the load is carried by the first inclined surface 138 installed on the guide block 118a/118b, the roller 156 on the second inclined surface 136 and the guide rail 116a. /116b is supported by the guide rail member 36 on the third inclined surface 144 and the fourth inclined surface 142 .

如上所述,即使工件W的载荷作用的方向变更了,只要改变滚轮156,硬质支承部件28a/28b,弹性支承32及导轨部件36的安装位置就可避免可能的不利因素。在导向块118a/118b的第1平行面134,第1倾斜面138,第2倾斜面136的整个面上装着滚轮156,在导轨116a/116b的第2平行面140,第3倾斜面144,第4倾斜面142的整个面上装着硬质支承部件28a/28b,弹性支承部件32及导轨部件36,则工件W的载荷方向,汽缸100的安装姿势可不受限制地良好地支承工件W的载荷。As mentioned above, even if the direction of the load action of the workpiece W is changed, as long as the installation positions of the rollers 156, the hard support members 28a/28b, the elastic supports 32 and the rail members 36 are changed, possible disadvantages can be avoided. On the 1st parallel plane 134 of guide block 118a/118b, the 1st inclined plane 138, roller 156 is adorned on the whole face of the 2nd inclined plane 136, on the 2nd parallel plane 140 of guide rail 116a/116b, the 3rd inclined plane 144, The entire surface of the fourth inclined surface 142 is equipped with the hard support members 28a/28b, the elastic support members 32 and the guide rail members 36, so that the load direction of the workpiece W and the installation posture of the cylinder 100 can support the load of the workpiece W well without restriction. .

对于适用于汽缸组件100上的第2实施例,虽然提出了将无杆汽缸110间隔开,将一组导向机构108a/108b略平行地配置,但并不限于此种构成,也可以使用单一的与无杆汽缸110平行的导向机构108a(108b),或者并排设置2个以上的导向机构108。For the second embodiment applicable to the cylinder assembly 100, although it is proposed to space the rodless cylinder 110 and arrange a group of guide mechanisms 108a/108b in parallel, it is not limited to this configuration, and a single The guide mechanism 108a (108b) parallel to the rodless cylinder 110, or two or more guide mechanisms 108 are arranged side by side.

应用导向机构的汽缸组件100不限于无杆汽缸110的构成,例如,在图未示出的液压缸,电驱动器等的线性驱动器附设一个或多个导向机构。The cylinder assembly 100 using a guide mechanism is not limited to the configuration of the rodless cylinder 110, for example, a hydraulic cylinder not shown in the figure, a linear driver such as an electric driver are attached with one or more guide mechanisms.

根据本发明,当导向块位于导轨的预定部位上时,因为导向块的滚轮位于由导轨的硬质支承部件支承的位置上,所以导向块不会在与其移动方向基本垂直的方向上移动,导向块被正确地定位在预定的位置上。另一方面,当导向块位于除导轨上述预定部位的其它部位上时,即使因扭曲、变形、弯曲等原因,导轨定位精度降低时,导轨部件因弹性支承部件的弹性作用在与导向块的方向垂直的方向移动,导轨部件的磨损和作用于滚轮上的载荷减轻,能够顺利地发挥导向功能。According to the present invention, when the guide block is positioned at a predetermined position of the guide rail, since the rollers of the guide block are positioned at positions supported by the hard supporting parts of the guide rail, the guide block will not move in a direction substantially perpendicular to its moving direction, and the guide Blocks are correctly positioned in their intended positions. On the other hand, when the guide block is located on other parts than the predetermined position of the guide rail, even if the positioning accuracy of the guide rail is reduced due to twisting, deformation, bending, etc., the guide rail components will move in the direction of the guide block due to the elasticity of the elastic support member. Moving in the vertical direction, the wear of the guide rail parts and the load acting on the rollers are reduced, and the guiding function can be performed smoothly.

因为硬质支承部件和弹性支承部件的接头由于第1锥形部和第2锥形部的作用而相互啮合,所以滚轮在导轨部件的硬质支承部件支承的位置和弹性支承部件支承的位置之间转动时,导轨部件沿弹性支承部件的第2锥形部慢慢地移动,因此能够抑制因台阶而产生的振动。Because the joints of the hard support part and the elastic support part are meshed with each other due to the action of the first tapered part and the second tapered part, the roller is between the position supported by the hard support part and the position supported by the elastic support part of the guide rail part. When the guide rail member is rotated in between, the guide rail member moves slowly along the second tapered portion of the elastic support member, so the vibration caused by the step can be suppressed.
